Main topic

What should you do when a fund manager leaves?

Earlier this week, investors in the Stewart Investors Asia Pacific Leaders Fund, previously known as the First State Asia Pacific Leaders fund, discovered the fund would be subject to a management overhaul.

Veteran fund manager Angus Tulloch will remain at Stewart Investors but is handing control of two of his funds over to other managers. The £7.5bn Asia Pacific Leaders fund, in which we have several million of our client’s assets, will be managed from next summer by David Gait and Sashi Reddy.

Martin talks through a series of questions from Fidelity Worldwide Investing that investor should be asking when a fund manager leaves:

When is the manager leaving? And what will the handover process look like?

Why is the manager leaving?

Who is the new manager? Is their style consistent with the departing manager or will there be changes?

Why did you buy the fund in the first place? Under new management, will it still do what it says on the tin?
